I listened to some Jeremy Soule The Elder Scrolls music the other day on Spotify and it's so weird how hearing it bought back memories of travelling through Oblivion and Skyrim. I platinumed the latter on PS3 but my enjoyment was greatly impacted by the loading screens. I'd still happily go back into that game world but I wish there was also Oblivion or Morrowind which I haven't played. But NO building construction stuff!

Why not? The Elder Scrolls games have plenty of differing mechanics and things to do that you can just ignore if you're not interested in them. Settlement creation a la Fallout 4 would mean something welcomed by those who liked it, and something that can be ignored by those who didn't.

Much like how I have never once seriously used magic, alchemy or enchanting in Oblivion/Skyrim.

Unless its integral to the experience i feel construction in a game like skyrim would be useless. I would much rather bethesda get this running at 60fps. After playing fallout 4, which resembled an up resed ps3 game, my expectations are low!

Never had any problems on PS3. On launch it apparently had serious performance issues but they only became apparent once your save file reached a certain size. By the time my save was approaching those levels it had already been patched.
